Course schedule
1 Introduction to ROS 2
- Overview of the ROS ecosystem.
- An overview of its technological building blocks and limitations.
- Community development and the project's communities.
Hands-on work
Manipulate existing ROS packages using the CLI to understand their architecture, inspect the runtime graph (rqt), and replay a recording (ros2 bag).
2 Key Technical Concepts
- ROS Project Structure, URDF, Coordinate Systems, and TF2.
- RMW middleware, its implementations, and QoS control.
- The command-line interface (CLI).
- Tools for analysis and debugging: graph and data visualization (rqt, RViz2), log levels.
- Recording and Playback of Scenes (ros2bag)
Hands-on work
Manipulate existing ROS packages using the CLI to understand their architecture, inspect the runtime graph (rqt), and replay a recording (ros2 bag).
3 Developing Code with ROS
- Client libraries (RCL) for Python and C++.
- The Node, Lifecycle, and Composable node types, and their executors.
- The BT.cpp and Groot2 behavior trees.
Hands-on work
Create and compile simple Python and C++ nodes that use the RMW.
4 Integrating a ROS 2 System
- The characteristics of a system that is well integrated with ROS 2.
- Standard message types for common sensors (LIDAR, sonar, force/torque, etc.).
- The modularity of packages and message interfaces.
- Simulating sensors, actuators, and an environment using Gazebo.
Hands-on work
Observing the ROS 2 interface of the sensors and actuators of a simulated robot in the Gazebo simulator.
5 Nav2 Autonomous Navigation
- Navigation concepts: mapping, route planner, route tracker.
- Monte Carlo AMCL (Adaptive Monte Carlo Localization) Localization.
- Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM).
Hands-on work
Implementation of autonomous Lidar navigation controlled by a Python and C++ node.
6 Handling with the MoveIt 2 robotic arm and AI integration
- MoveIt 2 Architecture.
- Forward and inverse kinematics solvers, and optional constraints.
- Trajectory solvers with collision avoidance (OMPL, Open Motion Planning Library).
- Using code assistants to generate Python or C++ nodes.
- Integration of an AI algorithm into a node (DRL, TOD, DNN, etc.).
Hands-on work
Implementation of an arm controlled by a Python and C++ node.

A very good course; the time allocated for the final practical session was too short for me (compared to the penultimate one, which was too long), even though it was far more interesting and comprehensive. Otherwise, I have no complaints. A very good trainer.
PARTICIPANTS
